Thank you for writing to me if you would like to make an offer. Pair of vintage rooster and hen sculptures in stoneware, handcrafted ceramic decoration. Superb set of two animal works in chamotte stoneware, representing a rooster (the larger one, with its tail spread and long neck upright) and a hen (more compact, with its tail raised). Very pronounced grainy texture, speckled with typical black inclusions of the pyritic clays used in the large artisanal workshops of the time (La Borne, Vallauris, South-West). The surface treatment alternates between a green-beige crackled speckled glaze ("craquelé") on the main parts of the body and areas of raw brown-red stoneware left unglazed, revealing the richness of the clay. White diagonals create a lovely graphic contrast. Both pieces bear a mark impressed into the raw clay (stamp or seal) on the reverse. Artist to be identified. Discreet signs of use: an old repair on one tail. Dimensions: Large 27x14xh22cm. Small 23x12xh20cm. Pickup at my home or delivery possible via carrier (for example, €40 to Paris and the surrounding region, please contact me for other destinations). Delivery times of 2 to 4 days are imposed by and are therefore given as purely indicative. Art design bird porcelain zoomorphic.
